Thai jets bomb Cambodia near historic UNESCO Angkor Temples, first air raid on Siem Reap region

Explosions near Cambodia’s most sacred landmark have triggered alarm across Southeast Asia. Phnom Penh now accuses Thailand of carrying out air strikes deep inside its territory, dangerously close to Angkor Wat, a UNESCO world heritage site. Bangkok denies wrongdoing as rockets land across the border and civilians flee in massive numbers. A fragile ceasefire touted days earlier is already unraveling, with jets, artillery and accusations flying on both sides.
